We are thrilled you want to volunteer with us. Our volunteers are the backbone of our rescue. We can't wait to introduce you to our organization and the team that makes it all happen. Please take a few minutes to read through the website. Learn our foster and adoption processes (no quizzes...we promise), and read the stories of the animals whose lives have been changed through City Of Euclid Animal Control. When you're ready, please fill out our VOLUNTEER APPLICATION
Help our animals thrive beyond their kennels. Volunteers provide exercise, playtime, and social interaction for both dogs and cats, supporting their mental and emotional wellbeing.
Be part of the moment everything changes. Adoption counselors help guide adopters through one of the most important decisions—bringing a new pet home. Volunteers answer questions, provide insight on our animals, and help ensure the best possible matches.
This is where the real heroes shine. Kennel cleaning may not be glamorous, but it’s critical to the health and wellbeing of both our dogs and cats. Volunteers help sanitize kennels, remove waste, squeegee floors, refill water bowls, change bedding, and keep litter boxes fresh—creating a clean, safe space for every animal in our care.
Help us build something from the ground up. We’re creating a dedicated fundraising team and looking for volunteers who want to make a real impact. This role includes planning events, connecting with local businesses, organizing donation drives, and bringing new ideas to life. If you’re creative, driven, and passionate about helping animals, this is your chance to be part of something bigger.
Be part of the front line of the shelter. Volunteers help answer phones, assist with dog licensing, support the adoption process, and handle general day-to-day tasks that keep things in the office running smoothly. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys interacting with people while helping animals behind the scenes.
